In this time of terrorism, climate change, economic crisis and displays of English footballing talent, we here at the Ministry of Information feel it is important that you, the British people, have something to cheer you all up. Really, you're all a miserable bunch who ought to know better.

Therefore we are proud to bring you the Keep Calm-o-matic. Just enter the pithy saying of your choice, choose a few simple options, and before you can say 'coalition government' you'll have your very own Government-approved motivational slogan.

We're continually adding images to the keep calm-o-matic engine - please do if you have any suggestions. You can now also purchase merchandise based on your newly created posters or buy standard 'Keep Calm' themed products from our shop, which helps support the running costs of the site.

5998 parodies created using this site and counting...!

If you've been living in a cave for the last few years (hello Osama!) then you may not know about the 'Keep Calm' craze. Fear not - our trusty guide to all things 'Keep Calm and Carry On' will tell you all you need to know.
